I love New York

VH1 has done again! They have successfully ran a reality dating show that has captured millions of viewers. Actually the premiere has the highest ratings that they have seen so far. After Flavor of Love they really found the important ingredients for a successfull show. But unlike the Bachelor and other similar reality dating shows they thrive on finding what they have coined "ghetto fabulous" characters to invade our screens. They completely have made fools out of this group of 20 men and New York herself.

Like Flavor of Love this show takes dehumanizing quite seriously and each guy is given a nickname from Romance to Pooty. The producers also make sure that unlimited alchohol is available and boy do these guys take advantage! Hey I would too. They provoke fights with their challenges and interviews and it is not long before one of the guys ends up being pinned down and having part of his hair shaved off. The majority of the men that they have chosen are often make references about "coming from the streets," or threatening to "cut someone up". The latter statement is obviously pretty disgusting and of course given air time. The first statement is just an indication of their background. Because of that the producers also had an episode where they took humiliation to another level. They invited self proclaimed Bitch, Omorossa from the apprentice to come in and interview the men about their income and total net worth. From making fun of a man for not being able to afford diamond earrings to listing all of one man's accounts that are in collection. I couldn't believe it. I wasn't too suprised when one man got so upset that he started shaking, crying and threw himself (or fainted) down a flight of stairs.
The last show just aired. It was a reunion special. These guys just do not get it. They see this newfound fame as a complete win when audiences everywhere are laughing at them. Like most reality contestants their fame will quite likely be very short lived, but the hurtful and emberrassing ways that they were often portrayed will follow them. Did I mention that New York made references to the winners inadequate "manhood" at the reunion? Wow. Of course its obvious that although I'm a bit put off by this I am an avid watcher. Cant deny it How else would I know all of this priceless info?
